To Encouraging the Future
"Oh, you're too young. You'll understand and change your mind, someday." Fuck you. Don't you ever scoff at anyones idea to better the world, however "impossible" they are. You are the very impediment to collective progress, crushing ideas in their infancy. I hope you've never said that to anyone else. When elephants are young, breeders bind them with incredibly strong chains. The animal cannot escape or move much at all. It quickly learns that the chains cannot be broken, and gives up trying. From that point on, the owner ties a simple rope around the elephant's neck to guide it around. With its sheer size and primal power, the elephant has the ability to overpower at any time , however it's been convinced it cannot. So it won't. This is exactly what you are doing. You are rationalizing your own inability to change the world as a universal law instead of a recognizing personal failure. #shackles
